Pickup is fine. I like to wait at the first door or last one because it's easier to spot my driver. When you leave, bridge/tunnel traffic in NYC can be pretty hectic and can take an hour.

Some uber won't take you to NYC.

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.
